<HtmlOutputText escape="true" id="j_id1018" rendered="true" transient="false" value="The redesigned Aston Martin DB9 competes in an elite segment of luxury grand tourers, such as the Bentley GT, Mercedes CL65 AMG and Maserati GranTurismo. Available as both a coupe and a convertible, the DB9 starts at a lofty $185,000. With lovely lines, a plush interior of supple leather and performance to spare, the 2014 DB9 delivers the best of this exclusive segment."/>

<HtmlOutputText escape="true" id="j_id1039" rendered="true" transient="false" value="The 4-seat Aston Martin DB9 is the ultimate luxury GT, both in coupe and convertible Volante form. Underlying its many attributes is a chassis in the coupe that delivers 20 percent more stiffness than in previous years, while the Volante is 30 percent stiffer. The car is also incredibly balanced, with weight distribution of 51/49 percent front to rear. The revised independent suspension features 3-stage adaptive damping, with Normal, Sport and Track modes providing corresponding levels of performance depending upon driver preference and driving conditions. Stopping power comes courtesy of ventilated carbon ceramic brakes, which offer incredible stopping power. The DB9 rides on 20-inch five-spoke alloy wheels, with Z-rated Pirelli tires providing the grip."/>

<p><strong>What do the Safety Ratings mean?</strong></p>
<p>The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) performs independent crash testing of new vehicles and then assigns them a score based on their performance. The overall crash test rating is based on how a vehicle performs in the following tests:</p>
<p><strong>Driver Crash Grade:</strong></p>
<p>Measures the chance of a serious injury to a crash test dummy that is placed in a driver's seat and driven into a fixed barrier at 35 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less chance of injury. </p>
<p><strong>Passenger Crash Grade:</strong></p>
<p>Similar to the driver crash grade, only now the focus is on the passenger. </p>
<p><strong>Rollover Resistance:</strong></p>
<p>Simulates an emergency lane change to measure the likelihood of a vehicle rolling over. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less risk of rollover. </p>
<p><strong>Side Impact Crash Test - Front:</strong></p>
<p>Focuses on the front side of a vehicle. It simulates crashes that can occur in intersections by striking a 3,015-pound weight against the side of a vehicle at 38.5 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 5 percent or less chance of injury. </p>
<p><strong>Side Impact Crash Test - Rear:</strong></p>
<p>Similar to the front side impact test only now the focus is on the rear passenger. </p>

<dt><strong>Original Warranty </strong></dt>
<dd>An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment.</dd>
<dd>The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including:</dd>
<dt><strong>Basic Warranty:</strong></dt>
<dd>Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters. </dd>
<dt><strong>Drivetrain Warranty: </strong></dt>
<dd>This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be. </dd>
<dt><strong>Roadside Assistance:</strong></dt>
<dd>The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car.</dd>
<dt><strong>Corrosion Warranty: </strong></dt>
<dd>This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal. </dd>
<dd>Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.</dd>
</dl>

<dl class="warranty-tips">
<dt><strong>Certified Pre-Owned Warranty </strong></dt>
<dd>To be eligible for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status, vehicles generally must be recent models with relatively low mileage. CPO vehicles must also pass a detailed inspection, outlined by the manufacturer, which is measured by the number of inspected points. </dd>
<dd>Warranty coverage can vary from one manufacturer to the next. While most certified pre-owned programs transfer and extend the existing new car warranty terms, others offer a warranty that simply represents an additional year and mileage value. Always check with the manufacturer for the specific warranties they offer.</dd>
<dd>Common features and benefits of Certified Pre-Owned warranties include:</dd>
<dt><strong>Age/Mileage Eligibility </strong></dt>
<dd>To even be considered for certification, a car must be a recent model year and have limited mileage. The exact requirements are established by individual manufacturers.</dd>
<dt><strong>Lease Term Certified </strong></dt>
<dd>Some manufacturers offer certified pre-owned cars for lease. The length of the lease is often shorter than a new car lease, but it will cost you less.</dd>
<dt><strong>Point Inspection </strong></dt>
<dd>These inspections entail a comprehensive vehicle test to ensure that all parts are in excellent working order. The point inspection list is simply a numbered list of exactly what parts of the car are examined. While many inspections range from a 70- to 150-point checklist, most are very similar and are performed using strict guidelines. Ask your local dealer about specific details.</dd>
<dt><strong>Return/Exchange Program</strong></dt>
<dd>Some manufacturers offer a very limited return or exchange period. Find out if you will get the sales tax and licensing/registration fees back should you return or exchange the car.</dd>
<dt><strong>Roadside Assistance </strong></dt>
<dd>Most certified pre-owned programs offer free roadside service in case your car breaks down while still under warranty.</dd>
<dt><strong>Special Financing</strong></dt>
<dd>Reduced-rate loans are available through many certified pre-owned programs. Manufacturer-backed inspections and warranties help eliminate the risks involved with buying pre-owned, so buyers who qualify can take advantage of the great offers.</dd>
<dt><strong>Transferable Warranty </strong></dt>
<dd>When a new car warranty transfers with the certification of the car and remains eligible for the next owner, it is known as a transferable warranty. Once the original transferable warranty expires, an extended warranty takes effect.</dd>
<dt><strong>Warranty Deductible </strong></dt>
<dd>This is the amount for which you are responsible when repair work is performed under the warranty. Some manufacturers require a deductible while others don't, so always ask.</dd>
